If pastures are not flush, feed tho
steers little extra.
Some people throw out slops and
refuse matter so near the wells that II
makes the water impure and un-
healthy. Maine Farmer,
r ject horse with q big. coarse
head do not look second time at a
horse with either long, slack bac k
or with hollow back.
DO not sell of the hens that begin
to moult early, as they will finish the
shedding of the feathers and begin to
lay before the winter sets in. The lato
moulting hens, however should al
ways be sold.-Fdrm, Field and Stock

Where one horse dies from over
work in this country twenty die from
exhaustion or want OF proper treat
ment. A sound horse will stand y
wonderful amount of work If he has
the right kind of care while at it

The farmer who has good horse
or two to turn into money every year
is generally one of class Of men who
are considered thrifty and frugal.
There is more clear money in raising
good horses, If It is done judiciously,
than in any other kind of livestock

-In haying, be ready to cut field
as soon as the grass is in proper con-
dition. A delay of a few days will
greatly iniure the quality of the hay.
Do not start the mover until the dew
is off, and cut only so much as can be
well cured and cared for. Hay caps
often pay for their cost in a single
season.
In the opinion of DIR. NJ. W. Tay-
lor of the London archaeological So
ciety, some common kinds of mould
may give rise to diphtheria He gives
instances in which serious outbreaks
have been traced to the mould devel-
cped on the wet plaster of leaky walls,
while old floeccs of wool and mouldy
skins appear also to be sources OF
diphtheric infection. --ArkInsdW Trav-

Western farming has received n
greater impetus from its efforts in the
direction of improved st0ck-raising
than from any other single step. Tho
Eastern farmer who still persists in
raising scrub stock can learn valu-
abe lesson from the experience of his
Western neighbor. When The mere
fact of dams being registered ami
nal makes difference Of from 5000
to $500 in her progeny, it is the height
of folly to raise scrub stock -IHdidIt-

Many farmers neglect to clear their
moving fields of stones, sticks and
other distractions to the moving ma
chine until the grass gets so high that
il is difficult, il not impossible, to see
them, and 80 the knives OF the mower
are injured if not broken; this is very
poor policy, for on most moving fields,
if the work be done before the grass
starts much the labor of removing all
distractions TO the harvesting ma
chimes is comparatively light Troy
Times.
Experienced feeders have learned
that the the bran having the largest
amount of flour in it does not make
the best food for stock. This flour is
mainly starch, and is what people
largely live on, but the shrowd feeder
of stock wants something better for
his animals. Spring wheat bran has u
larger proportion OF nitrogenous mat
ter than that from winter wheat and
though many do not know the fact 1t
is the most valuable for feeding. M
